My blogging on brake repair
You will not miss the distinctive smell of brake fluid if a leak is present; likewise, have your brake fluid level checked if the fluid leaking underneath your car has a light amber color. Rotor surface issues cause vibrations of the brake pedal or wheel. If in need of repair, your brakes may also squeal until you come to a full stop or when you release the brake pedal. When that happens, it means that the brake wear indicators may be scraping against the rotors. The grinding and growling sound of metal on metal means only one thing: that your brake pads are completely worn away.
